4:20, or 4/20 (pronounced four-twenty) is slang in cannabis culture for the consumption of cannabis, especially smoking cannabis around the time 4:20 p.m. (or 16:20 in 24-hour notation) and also refers to cannabis-oriented celebrations that take place on annually on April 20 (which is 4/20 in U.S. form).

The sobering fact is that substance-impaired driving contributed to 8 percent of all 2018 Missouri traffic fatalities. In 2018, 78 people were killed, 142 seriously injured in crashes that involved at least one drug-impaired driver.
